The South Carolina Gamecocks are set for a showdown against the Clemson Tigers in one of the biggest rivalries in college football on Saturday. With both teams hoping to convince the playoff committee they’re worth a spot in the College Football Playoffs, the stakes of the Palmetto Bowl will be at an all-time high. This game has the makings to be one of the best weekend matchups.
South Carolina vs. Clemson
- Location: Memorial Stadium (Clemson, SC) | Time: 12:00 p.m. ET
- Where to Watch: ESPN
- Spread: Clemson -2.5, Moneyline: Clemson -132, Total: 49.5
South Carolina vs. Clemson Best Bet: South Carolina +110
South Carolina enters this matchup as one of the hottest teams in the SEC and the nation. The Gamecocks have taken down three ranked opponents in three weeks and now have their sights set on their rivalry with Clemson to continue their playoff push. Despite being the underdogs in nearly every road game, Shane Beamer’s squad has continued defying the odds and is two plays away from being 10-1 on the season. The odds are too good not to take South Carolina in this one.
South Carolina vs. Clemson Best Total Bet: Over 49.5
The Gamecocks’ offense has found its rhythm over the last few weeks and has only added to the identity that Beamer and offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains have built in Columbia. Averaging 32.9 points per game, South Carolina can score in a hurry. Meanwhile, Clemson has been dominant offensively all season long, averaging 37.6 points per contest. That said, this matchup could be like the Palmetto Bowl from two seasons ago that turned into a shootout. A final score of 30-24 could be a realistic outcome of this showdown.

South Carolina Best Player Bet: LaNorris Sellers 2+ Passing Touchdowns +152
LaNorris Sellers has been a terror over the last month of play. The freshman sensation has slowed the game down, and he looks like one of the top quarterbacks in the league. As a hometown kid, this rivalry means more to him, and it won’t be a shock to see him leave it all out on the field. Sellers has thrown 2+ passing touchdowns in four straight games, including their wins against Missouri, Vanderbilt, and Texas A&M. On Saturday, he could be in for another huge day.
Clemson Best Player Bet: Antonio Williams Any Time Touchdown +115
Antonio Williams has emerged as a big-time pass catcher for the Tigers on offense throughout the season. The sophomore is up to 58 receptions for 689 receiving yards and ten touchdowns heading into this matchup. In a game where Clemson could be forced to score points quickly, their best bet may be through the passing game against a stout Gamecocks defensive line that can quickly shut down a team’s rushing attack. Nonetheless, Williams could be set to find the endzone before the game ends.
